... oh what to do. The risks are apparently enhanced in the third trimester. I am nervous though about this answer from the HSE via swineflu.ie:
Will vaccinating a mother protect the baby after they are born?
"Since infants less than 6 months of age cannot receive the vaccine, getting vaccinated against influenza during pregnancy may offer protection to the newborn baby too."
Why can infants less than 6 months of age not receive the vaccine? And it they cannot, why would anyone risk giving their unborn child a shot of something when there appears to be no conclusive studies of the effect of it on the unborn child?
